OP If you are going to show off by using a foreign word, why not go all the way and get
the sound right? The word is smögasbord. It sounds like smergasbord. I found a
Swedish pronunication site that said "ö" sounds like "i" in "bird".
Last time I had smörgasbord was at Ola's in Boston. I hoped to impress a pretty
girl by taking her there. She much later gave me the mitten, alas. But it wasn't
because she didn't like the smörgasbord.
